I have decided for my magazine,

I chose 'ROJAK' as my magazine masthead.
'ROJAK' is a Malay word, a traditional fruit and vegetable salad dish.
The term 'ROJAK' is mixture.
The reason why i used 'ROJAK' for my magazine masthead,
it is because i am going to introduce the cafe in Malaysia.
There's a lot of cafe in Malaysia.
Although some of the cafe are selling western food, 

but there are still cooked by Malaysian. :)
